IZEE ARIZONA WE: nn TUCSON, PIMA. COUNTY, ARIZONA, TERRITORY, SATURDAY AUGUST 9, 1890. NO. 39. VOL. XX. EK LY CI More rain is said to have fallen during the last three days than in any other like time within the past ten years. A North and South railroad would largely aid in bringing Arizona's undeveloped wealth to the fore. Ukless all signs fail the firaa county democrats will have a monkey and parrot time in their next convention- So mote it be. The diffidence of the candidate is pro verbial but the newspaper men would like to Bee the color of their announcements, all the same. No better summer climate than th'i could be desired. Neither can it be found. Arizona is healthfut, comfortable and prosperous. New Mexico is troubled with white Caps, and Governor Prince has issued a proclamation warning the gang to disband or take a dose of hemp. The idea that this is to be an off year politically for the Republicans, is be- coming pretty well -dissapated, in the minds of intelligent democrats. The present rains are known to be general throughout Southern Arizona. Their benefit to cattlemen and the coun try at large cannot be overestimated. Voters should bear in mind that a complete re-registration has been ordered. No names will be carried over froiu the old register. This is an important matter and one not to be delayed. The proposition of Stanley to colonize the negroes in the Congo country is well enough as a suggestion, but it takes two to make a bargain if one is black. We enter a motion to colon" Stanley. It is always well to bear in mind that the principles of a great party are higher than the prejudices and passions of men. Freedom to criticize is one thing; fealty to party and to principles is another. To-morrow morning the publishers of the Tombstone Epitaph will commence the publication of a morning daily with Associated Press dispatches. It is to be a straight out perpendicular Republican paper and will no doubt be heartily supported.The census recounts for the cities of .Minneapolis and St Paul are underway. Minneapolis accused St. Paul of knavery, St. Paul charges Minneapolis with rascality, and supervisor of the census, Porter, says they both are common thieves. A pretty mess. All. the talk about Blaine serding secret instructions to our Revenue cutters in Behring Sea and backing down from his iiosit ion le fore the country it-bosh. Mr. Biaiue is not the man wL backs down; he backs up and 6tayt there till it congeals in sheoL General Clabkson's visit to th West will do more to give him a just a-prociatiou of its greatness, than a lit time of study. Persoral contact an. personal investigation outweighs all i! i-representations that can be made, am General Clarkson has returned to his labors in toe postoffice department at Washington, fully conversant with th? aims and wants of the boundless west. The result of his visit will everywhere be observant through increased mail facilities, better building, and a more efficient postal service all over the coast. The Solid South, the pride and core and flower of democracy is threatened with disruption. In the principal Southern states an organization known as the .Farmer's Alliance has grown up within the party and promises to be all jower-luL It is a bit er war of the masses against the plutocrats; the shovelrj against the chivalry; the po' white Against the Southern gentleman, la South Carolina this new faction is-known as the Tillnianites, and is head d by a man named Farmer Tillmai . The revolt thus far assures the alliance entire control of the stale. Among tbe demands of this young political giant the fallowing are prominent: 1 Free aud unlimited coinage of 6il-Ter.2 Abolition of National banks and the substitution of legal tender treasury notes. 3 The payment of public debts out of the surplus. 4. Equal taxation of property of very jcc:e8 according to value, in cluding government bonds and (securities..5 Abolition of class legislation. C. A graduated income tax. 7. Legislation in dealing ia futures of agricultural and mechanical products 8. Reclamation of all lands held by .aliens, railroads and other corporations. 9. Abolition of all taxes not neces- sary to the economic administration of the government. 10. The honors of government to be equally distributed among the different states. 1L. A liberal and thorough system of pub-lie schools. In addition to the above the state or ganizations make local applications to their platform, which have no general interest. The main importance attach ed to the movement is that it promises a complete revolution in southern poll tics. The fats of office which since the days of the reconstruction have been doled out to the patricians, pass into the hands of the yeomanry. That there is room for vast improvement there is no doubt. In the meantime the republicans are banding closer together, and the great democratic split may prove a special act of divine providence to secure a fair, faithful and economic Republican ad ministration. : It is reported that the democratic op position to the federal election bill is grounded, in some quarters, on the belief that it necessitates a return to tis sue ballotsand an unfair count. Virtu ous indignation. Affairs in Europe are so complicated at present, that it would take very little to precipitate a great war. This is one great reason why England is not anxious to get into any trouble with the United States over the Behring Sea matter. Hostilities in Central America will he of short duration, as neither of the little republics are in a financial position to continue hostilities very long. It can not be said, however, that the uprising was causeless. The Argentine government has been among the most reckless corrupt and inefficient which any South American country has had in recent years. It may be possible that the class of men who will ultimately come to th head of affairs may not be much better than their predecessors, but it is certain they cannot be mu.'h worse. The present month will end the warm weather of an Arizona summer, and it will be succeeded by the long season of perfect climatic conditions that will yet make this the favored land of the continent. The near approach of the cool and bright days is not only the reason for rejoicing, for with them will come renewed activity in every industry and a general revival in business matters. With firm faith in the great future of our territory and an absolute knowledge of its abundant resources, we cannot re frain from anticipations of a busy winter. In Arizona people do not suffer sun stroke. It don't get hot enough for that climax. Our heavenly climate is hardly appreciated, even by our own people, and us glorious attractions are absolutely un dreamed of in the far east. In Arizona there is no oppression through a sultry, humid atmosphere, but a dry, cooling breeze hungrily laps up the pleasant perspiration and gives a refreshing cool ness U the individual. We express our sympathy for t -e unfortunate people of poor, oid, scorching New York, who are daily being prostrated by the score. A marked change is noticeable in the agricultural districts of Arizona. More especially is this so in those bordering the mineral belts which enterprise is so steadily developing. This is conse quent upon the growing demand for the different marketable products, which hitherto have been cultivated hi quantities barely sufficient to meet the need ful demands of the producers. Each new mining investment creates an addi tional demand which, if the country does hot supply, must be rilled from else where at an advanced rate over what the same articles could with profit be produced at home. The agricultural population, however, are fully alive to ihesw interests, and have planted and are pre pa iug to plant a larger area of ground than ever before. New land is oeing cleared and irrigated, and there is little doubt that the crops of the coming axuu will demand an outside market, if not assume proiortions uneqmiled in other btates and territories. A few years -igo we imported all our flour, fruits and vegetables, at exorbitant market and freight rates. To day we are in a posi tion to export. Although the late rains nave done much damage to property, along our water courses, yet the deluge s welcomed by all, aud by stock men in pirti:ular. Their ranges will fatten thoirands of beeves for tbe outside mar kets this fall and winter. There seems to be a generally ac cepted notion by people who are strang er to this territory, that Arizona is about equally divided between sandy deserts and sterile mountains ranges, offeiing scant inducements to tillers of the soil. The explanation is simple. As with that vast extent of territory years ago called the great American desert," the soil of much of Arizona ie by no uieuns destitute of fructifying quali ties, but only needs judicious treatment and cultivation to rival any part of the world in its agricultural development. In certain parts of this territory there are traceable remains of a vast irrigat ing system planned and carried to perfection by some prehistoric lace of many centuries past; a number of canals not excelled in size by any constructed for a similar purpose in the United States have been built, by which the waters of the Gila aud Salt rivers have been turn ed on thousands of acres of desert land, and numerous thriving settlements have sprung up along their course in sections hitherto given over entirely to the horn ed toad and cactus. Rendered thus in dependent of Ithe rainfall of the terri tory, amazing crops of cereals, veget ables and all kinds of fruits are raised, and, as shown in years like the present, when European grain crops are a fail ure, the Arizona product is prolific. That Arizona is essentially an agricul tural country, has so often been practi cally demonstrated as to need no fur iher argument. It is probable that the development of the southwest in this direction has just begun, and that re suits will be reached that will rival any other part of the Pacific slope. The Colorado river is bordered by lands just as capable of cultivation as the Salt and Gila rivers. A small attempt ha een made to utilize its waters fur irrigation, and with unbounded success. With the crowing demand for farming land, and the supply becomes yearly more restricted, there will beyond doubt come a time when capital will turn the life-giving stream of the Colorado upon the soil along its banks, and much of the famedand much-dreaded Colorado desert will lose its old time character forever. When it is borne in mind that fruits and all kinds of vegetables grow to such perfection in Arizona, and at a much earlier period than in California, the advantages here offered to the farmer are obvious and places this country in the van of all agricultural regions. : A IXSSON IN ADVERTISING. The following lesson in advertising from the Wyandotte Gazette so appropriately applies to a class of advertising sharks that periodically visit Tucson, that for the benefit of those who "catch on,' we reproduce it entire. "Every section of the country is subject to a periodical raid by the slick gentle man with the advertising chart in which he will sell the advertiser a choice space at from $2 to $10, according to the credu lity of the patron and the estimated size of his pocket book. Of these charts, all the way from twenty-five to fifty, or cc oasionally one hundred may be scattered about. Sometimes they are not even scattered about, but are printed and dis posed of in bulk, where they will never do any one harm or good. A caso has recently come to our attention of one of these chart gentlemen who had an edition of two hundred of these cash absorbers printed, and whose solici tude for the gentlemen who had patronized him was so slight that he did not even "lift" the edition from the office in which it was printed. The oily gentle man who manipulated the chart scheme left a copy with each manufacturer or firm represented thereon, got his money and skipped from town between two days. It was afterward learned that he hau promised to issue 500 copies and distribute them all over the state. Some firms paid as high us ten dollars for a small space. He claimed to have netted $220 in six days. Most of his victims, without doubt, were the manufacturers who did not "believe in newspaper advertising." Ue did not catch a single retail dealer who was posted as to advertising and the mediums through which it pays to operate. The advertising chart deal is only one of almost numberless devices resorted to by plausible but indolent fellows, who find it easier to skip about the country working up schemes of this kind than to settle down to any legitimate line of work. The merchant or manufacturer who puts his monev into an advertising chart could usually save valuable time and secure the same results by thrusting the same amount of hard cash into his office stove. The result would be precisely the same his money would be gone withou. any compensating return." "WHY DID HE GOT A It. Lioais Merchant' Trip to the Poat-offlce, and tbe Keault.

I never had but one attack of cramps in swimming, and that was in a match. I was three-quarters of a mile ahead of my antagonist when I felt a cramp in my leg. It caused a swelling in the calf as big as a baseball. With my other leg I tried to do the tread water act, and raising my right leg up I bent over and began to rub with all my might and main. Well, I sank five feet while I was rubbing, but I soon got rid of the cramp. If a pain should come in the stomach there is only one remedy, and that is to get out of the water as soon as possible, take a little brandy or whisky and be rubbed all over the body. As to the use of whisky as a stimulant while in the water I most decidedly advise against it. In my great swimming matches I have tried the effect of whisky as a stimulant. One good drink braced me up, so to speak, fox seven or ten minutes, and after that period I felt decidedly worse. Use no stimulant except after coming from the water, and solely for the purpose of creating a reaction. Qua Sundstrom in Hew York Mail and Express. Take In Reefs Before Tou Sail. And now a few words of caution, and you need not be ashamed to heed them, for old yachtsmen do just what I am about to advise you to do. It is only the foolhardy greenhorn sailor who "takes chances" with a yacht. In 6qually weather never fasten the sheet; always reef before you start, and if the wind is very strong take two reefs. It is easy to "shake them out," but hard to put them in; so reef before you cast off. Never take ladies and children with you in bad weather, and generally, if you are taking out a party of that kind, keep your boat Tinder reefed canvas. Then if emergency arises your sacred trust is safe; for remember that a capsize with ladies and children means ahno&t certain death to some, perhaps to all. It is wise also to have a small rowboat in tow on such occasions, for it is worth more than a hundred life preservers. F. W. Pang- born in St. Nicholas. ' E as Security. The Fifth National hank of Provi dence, R. L, lent $5,000 to a produce dealer named Alseraon, taking as security 832 cases of eggs stored with a warehouse company. Alserson used the eggs from time to time, but replaced those taken by other eggs, so that there were always 832 cases in the warehouse, r inally he failed, paying six cents on the dollar, and the bank looked for its security, the eggs. When the bank finally sent for the eggs they were worthless, and the board of health ordered them buried, which was done. Now the bank sues the warehouse company in the supreme court for $5,000, claiming that they agreed to keep the eggs safe, and the company claims that it kept the eggs safe, not a shell being broken, but that it could not prevent them from spoiling.

Lancaster, Pa., July 31 The appear ance of a wild, naked, unknown man in New Holland, near the Welsh moun tains, the rugged quarters of the fam ous Buzzard outlaws, is creating great excitement in that vicinity. Htwas first seen on the road near Bears' hotel, two miles wept of pev Holland. U hen he saw several men approaching he ran away. He has iweu seen in several places since. He is described as a large and muscular looking man, and hi? size will prob ably deter oflicers from endeavoring to arrest him. He is a stranger iir tho neighborhood aud is armetWith a club and stones. He takes a wild delight in appearing on the highways and fright ening people. A year ago a simihar man appeared in the same plase. lie prove to be of unsound mind aud was confined for a time. His description answers to that of tho naked man now causing so much consternation. Stockton, Cal., July 31. Charles C. Green, an inmate of the state insane asylum, aged 20 years, was strangled to death last night by his crazy cell mate, a Portuguese named Frank Case. When the cell was opened this morning Green was found dead in his bed, but it was supposed that his death was due to nat ural causes and the body was removed to the morgna, where physicians alter-wards found marks of lingers cn his throat, and foam on his lips. The Portuguese was asked about the matter but the only reply that he wuld make was that Green died at ten o'clock last night. The Portuguese was suspected of suicidal mania and nis arms were kept strapped close to his body. It is sup posed ho sprang upon his victim durirg the night and held him by the throat with a madman's strength until life was extinct. Botli men were committed to the asylum from this city a few days ago. Washington, July 31 Senator Frye stated that the river and harbor bill will be taken up next Friday. The conference report on the District of Columbia bill was agreed to. Teller reported the bill authorizing the court of claims to take jurisdiction oa William McGavahan's claim on the Rancho Bonito Grande in California. It was placed on the calendar.

The electrical machine used for counting the census returns ;s not giving as satisfactory results as expected. It works rapidly and wonderfully, and ia a great labor saver for the 1,700 clerks of the census bureau. But it is a curious matter of experiment that the same machine will never count the same pile of returns twice with lhe same result. To-day under a challenge from an official in the bureau, thirteen tests were made, and the only result that seemed at all accurate was a single footing in one district. That was the same as that reached by counting in the oid way by the clerks. The 1700 census cleiks might have to work harder and longer if they ehould themselves count the returns, but tho final result would be more accurate.' SPKiNGFittD, HI., Aug. 1 The state legislature this evening finally passed the world's fair bill after knocking out the eight hour section. The joint resolution however was adopted requesting the director to make eight hours the rule. The legislature then adjourned sine die. San Francisco, Aug. 1 J. W.

Cannon gave notice that he would at the earliest opportunity ask action on th. wc4ution rfvokifill leaves of absence excepting those granted on account of sickness. The question being on non-curringin the minor senate amendments to the sundry civil bill, Rogers of Ark., rose, and being recognized by the speaker, said he wished to submit a few remarks. Cannon moved that debate was not in order. The speaker was at first inclined to sustain the point, but after a brief debate in order to save time he recognized Cannon's motion. Rogers protested and had quite an ex tended colloquy with the speaker. Remainder of the afternoon wa" con sumed in vain attempts to secure a quo rum, and without disposing of any bills the house took a recess. Logansport, Ind., Aug. 1 George Burson, Judge of the Pulaski 'Circuit Court, at Winaraac, was arrested recently for refusing to answer questions put to him by a census enumerator. Burson war asked regarding mortgages which he held. He 6aid: "Vou just write in that line that I refuse to answer. ' The enumerator did as requested and sent to headquarters, where his arrest was ordered. Bail was fixed at $300. Burson was renominated by the democrats last week for judge. He claims that the enumerator had no right to ask regard ing mortgages, and the law is unconstitutional.Heixna, Mon., Aug. 1 A 6tate con vention of all the labor organizations has just concluded a four day's session here with the organization of a new party, to be known as the Independent labor party of J: on tana.

Paris, Aug. 2 The Side and Figaro print reports of fresh Nihilists plots against the Czar, discovered at St. Petersburg. According to these reports Prof. Coritovaski, of the University of St. Petersburg, and a number of students have been arrested. Many persons were taken in custody in Moscow' on the same charge. Two officers of high rank in the Russian army have committed suicide. Abilene, K , August 2. Farmers Alliance of the Eighth Judicial District have put in circulation a petition to Hon. M. D. Nicholson, judge of the Eighth Judicial District, Kansas, asking, in view of the disastrous failure of crops and the general stringency in money matters, that proceedings in the foreclosure of all real estate mortgages now pending or that will be commenced with-iii one year, be delayed. Lawrence, Aug. 1. Judging by the different tlegrees of ruin, Springfield street suffered the worst destruction. On this street yesterday were rows of i comfortable cottages wherein dwelt well-to do mill hands, mechanics and clerks, with their families. To-night the street i is suffocated by heaps of crushed cot tages and overturned buildings. On this street, too, occurred tbe most heartrending scenes incident to the city's overpowering disaster. To-night, under a lowering sky and amid indiscriminate piles of broken roofs, furniture, bedding, crockery, plaster and the like are gathered groups of weeping women and sorrowful men mournfully relating to each other their experiences during the blight of wind and rain. Perhaps the saddest case among all the unfortunates is that of James O'Con-nell, who lived with his family at No. 27. His wife and fourteen-year-old daughter were killed outright by the falling timbers of their own house. All day long and far into the night he has paced backward and forward in front of where his home was, the tears streaming down his cheeks and his voice crying to heaven to take him alter his dead. A touching sight met the World reporter's eye some hours after the visita tion ol the cloud burst. Perched upon a table which stood upon a pile of broken furniture and masonry was a little maid of perhaps four years. She stood looking in every direction at the wreck. Then as the reporter and others ap proached she said: I want mamma!" The crushed buildings apparently had no effect upon her then. The memory of them may later, for her mother s body was a few minutes later taken from the rins. o one there knew the name of the woman and the little girl was lost among the host of other homeless ones that are being cared for. Such scenes are common. San. Francisco, Aug. 2 A Washington special says: The War Department has received the Court Martial docu ments in the cases of Miltimore, Wham, Towar, and Kimball, army officers recently tried at Tucson, Arizona, and it is understood the charge against Miltimore of fraudulent rental of his private property to the government, at an exorbitant figure, was not sustained by the Court Martial. He is found guilty of charging the government L0 for a type writer which was never bought. Evidence showed that-the man whose name was signed to a government voucher, never sold type writers. It is understood upon his conviction in this latter instance, Capt. Miltimore is dismissed from the afmy. It is understood both Wham and Towar, charged with irregularities in rental of apartments to the government, have been acquitted. Major Kimball, who was charged with neglect of duty, is sentenced to a repri mand. City of Mexico, August 2. A dispatch from Guatemala states there is no revolution there. Barrillas is firm in his belief that the difficulty with Salvador will soon be settled satisfactorily to Guatemalan interests. Pau, Salvadorian representative here, received a telegram to-day, confirming the report that General Rivas, leader of the insurrection, is captured and shot; also, that Salvador troops which returned to the capital to oppose General Rivas, are preparing to march against Guatemalans. t a Ckoss, Wis., August 2. A. A. Freeman &. Co.'s large store, elevator and mill was burned at noon. Loss, 8300,- 000; insurance, 100,000. Washington, Aug. 2.

In one cell, two and a half yards square, the correspondent discovered nearly a score of wretches panting for air and starving for food. They have in the way of the latter nothing but bread and water. The greater number were 6tark, naked and chained by their ankles and wrists as if the jailers were unable to in ict tortures enough upon their victims in the dens already provided. The correspondent found a series of underground cells said to be reserved for the worst prisoners, which were in total darkness, whom Turkish tyranny had singled out for special barbarity, in order to force confessions, where confessions would have proved useful to those in power, the aid of ants is called in. These ants are kept in 6mall boxes for the purpose, and hf ty of them are placed at one time on the naked body of the prisoner whom it is desired to torture.

The transition from long lingering and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the ; individual. Such a remarkable event is treasured in tbe memory and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is gratefully bleesed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restoration to health to the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you are troubled with any disease of Kidneys, Ltiver or Stomach, of long or short standing you will surely find relief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold at 30c ta. and $1 per bottle at Dr. Martin's Drug Store. Something: Hew and Good Col. Durr has again made a step forward as a public benefactor. It had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucson were complaining about the beer sold in this city being hitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, a famous old lady who has spent her iifei n studying the lilies and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her, explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grandmother knew at once the remedy, and straightway sent t car-load of the celebrated Extra Pale Erlanger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the beet judges in this city, and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is carried with it. The Colonel asks that every family try a few bottles of this beer, and feels confident that they will have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made a mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new beer with her reputation, which is good. The Colonel has been instrueted to sell this beer at 812 per bbL and 12.20 per doz so that all may share in the luxury nd benefits afforded by its use. Peace on Earth Awaits that countless army of martyrs, whose ranks are constantly recruited from the victims of nervousness and nervous diseases. The price of the boom is a systematic course of Hoe-tetter's Stomach Bitters, the finest and most genial of tonic nervines, pursued with reasonable persistence. Easier, pleasanter and safer this to wash the victualling department with pseudo-tonics, alcoholic or the reverse, beef extracts, nerve food, narcotics, sedatives and poisons in disguise. "Tired Nature's swet restorer, balmy sleep," is the providential recuperant of weak nerves, and this glorious franchise being usually the consequences of sound digestion and increased vigor, the great stomachic which insures both is productive also of repose at the required time. Not unrefreshed awakens the individual who uses it, but vigorous, clear headed and tranquil. Use the Bitters also in fever and ague, rheumatism, kidney troubles, constipation and biliousness. S.

IZEE ARIZONA WE: nn TUCSON, PIMA. COUNTY, ARIZONA, TERRITORY, SATURDAY AUGUST 9, 1890. NO. 39. VOL. XX. EK LY CI More rain is said to have fallen during the last three days than in any other like time within the past ten years. A North and South railroad would largely aid in bringing Arizona's undeveloped wealth to the fore. Ukless all signs fail the firaa county democrats will have a monkey and parrot time in their next convention- So mote it be. The diffidence of the candidate is pro verbial but the newspaper men would like to Bee the color of their announcements, all the same. No better summer climate than th'i could be desired. Neither can it be found. Arizona is healthfut, comfortable and prosperous. New Mexico is troubled with white Caps, and Governor Prince has issued a proclamation warning the gang to disband or take a dose of hemp. The idea that this is to be an off year politically for the Republicans, is be- coming pretty well -dissapated, in the minds of intelligent democrats. The present rains are known to be general throughout Southern Arizona. Their benefit to cattlemen and the coun try at large cannot be overestimated. Voters should bear in mind that a complete re-registration has been ordered. No names will be carried over froiu the old register. This is an important matter and one not to be delayed. The proposition of Stanley to colonize the negroes in the Congo country is well enough as a suggestion, but it takes two to make a bargain if one is black. We enter a motion to colon" Stanley. It is always well to bear in mind that the principles of a great party are higher than the prejudices and passions of men. Freedom to criticize is one thing; fealty to party and to principles is another. To-morrow morning the publishers of the Tombstone Epitaph will commence the publication of a morning daily with Associated Press dispatches. It is to be a straight out perpendicular Republican paper and will no doubt be heartily supported.The census recounts for the cities of .Minneapolis and St Paul are underway. Minneapolis accused St. Paul of knavery, St. Paul charges Minneapolis with rascality, and supervisor of the census, Porter, says they both are common thieves. A pretty mess. All. the talk about Blaine serding secret instructions to our Revenue cutters in Behring Sea and backing down from his iiosit ion le fore the country it-bosh. Mr. Biaiue is not the man wL backs down; he backs up and 6tayt there till it congeals in sheoL General Clabkson's visit to th West will do more to give him a just a-prociatiou of its greatness, than a lit time of study.

The result of his visit will everywhere be observant through increased mail facilities, better building, and a more efficient postal service all over the coast. The Solid South, the pride and core and flower of democracy is threatened with disruption. In the principal Southern states an organization known as the .Farmer's Alliance has grown up within the party and promises to be all jower-luL It is a bit er war of the masses against the plutocrats; the shovelrj against the chivalry; the po' white Against the Southern gentleman, la South Carolina this new faction is-known as the Tillnianites, and is head d by a man named Farmer Tillmai . The revolt thus far assures the alliance entire control of the stale. Among tbe demands of this young political giant the fallowing are prominent: 1 Free aud unlimited coinage of 6il-Ter.2 Abolition of National banks and the substitution of legal tender treasury notes. 3 The payment of public debts out of the surplus. 4. Equal taxation of property of very jcc:e8 according to value, in cluding government bonds and (securities..5 Abolition of class legislation. C. A graduated income tax. 7. Legislation in dealing ia futures of agricultural and mechanical products 8. Reclamation of all lands held by .aliens, railroads and other corporations. 9. Abolition of all taxes not neces- sary to the economic administration of the government. 10. The honors of government to be equally distributed among the different states. 1L. A liberal and thorough system of pub-lie schools. In addition to the above the state or ganizations make local applications to their platform, which have no general interest. The main importance attach ed to the movement is that it promises a complete revolution in southern poll tics. The fats of office which since the days of the reconstruction have been doled out to the patricians, pass into the hands of the yeomanry. That there is room for vast improvement there is no doubt. In the meantime the republicans are banding closer together, and the great democratic split may prove a special act of divine providence to secure a fair, faithful and economic Republican ad ministration. : It is reported that the democratic op position to the federal election bill is grounded, in some quarters, on the belief that it necessitates a return to tis sue ballotsand an unfair count. Virtu ous indignation. Affairs in Europe are so complicated at present, that it would take very little to precipitate a great war. This is one great reason why England is not anxious to get into any trouble with the United States over the Behring Sea matter. Hostilities in Central America will he of short duration, as neither of the little republics are in a financial position to continue hostilities very long. It can not be said, however, that the uprising was causeless. The Argentine government has been among the most reckless corrupt and inefficient which any South American country has had in recent years. It may be possible that the class of men who will ultimately come to th head of affairs may not be much better than their predecessors, but it is certain they cannot be mu.'h worse. The present month will end the warm weather of an Arizona summer, and it will be succeeded by the long season of perfect climatic conditions that will yet make this the favored land of the continent. The near approach of the cool and bright days is not only the reason for rejoicing, for with them will come renewed activity in every industry and a general revival in business matters. With firm faith in the great future of our territory and an absolute knowledge of its abundant resources, we cannot re frain from anticipations of a busy winter. In Arizona people do not suffer sun stroke. It don't get hot enough for that climax. Our heavenly climate is hardly appreciated, even by our own people, and us glorious attractions are absolutely un dreamed of in the far east. In Arizona there is no oppression through a sultry, humid atmosphere, but a dry, cooling breeze hungrily laps up the pleasant perspiration and gives a refreshing cool ness U the individual. We express our sympathy for t -e unfortunate people of poor, oid, scorching New York, who are daily being prostrated by the score. A marked change is noticeable in the agricultural districts of Arizona. More especially is this so in those bordering the mineral belts which enterprise is so steadily developing. This is conse quent upon the growing demand for the different marketable products, which hitherto have been cultivated hi quantities barely sufficient to meet the need ful demands of the producers. Each new mining investment creates an addi tional demand which, if the country does hot supply, must be rilled from else where at an advanced rate over what the same articles could with profit be produced at home. The agricultural population, however, are fully alive to ihesw interests, and have planted and are pre pa iug to plant a larger area of ground than ever before. New land is oeing cleared and irrigated, and there is little doubt that the crops of the coming axuu will demand an outside market, if not assume proiortions uneqmiled in other btates and territories. A few years -igo we imported all our flour, fruits and vegetables, at exorbitant market and freight rates. To day we are in a posi tion to export. Although the late rains nave done much damage to property, along our water courses, yet the deluge s welcomed by all, aud by stock men in pirti:ular. Their ranges will fatten thoirands of beeves for tbe outside mar kets this fall and winter. There seems to be a generally ac cepted notion by people who are strang er to this territory, that Arizona is about equally divided between sandy deserts and sterile mountains ranges, offeiing scant inducements to tillers of the soil. The explanation is simple. As with that vast extent of territory years ago called the great American desert," the soil of much of Arizona ie by no uieuns destitute of fructifying quali ties, but only needs judicious treatment and cultivation to rival any part of the world in its agricultural development. In certain parts of this territory there are traceable remains of a vast irrigat ing system planned and carried to perfection by some prehistoric lace of many centuries past; a number of canals not excelled in size by any constructed for a similar purpose in the United States have been built, by which the waters of the Gila aud Salt rivers have been turn ed on thousands of acres of desert land, and numerous thriving settlements have sprung up along their course in sections hitherto given over entirely to the horn ed toad and cactus. Rendered thus in dependent of Ithe rainfall of the terri tory, amazing crops of cereals, veget ables and all kinds of fruits are raised, and, as shown in years like the present, when European grain crops are a fail ure, the Arizona product is prolific. That Arizona is essentially an agricul tural country, has so often been practi cally demonstrated as to need no fur iher argument. It is probable that the development of the southwest in this direction has just begun, and that re suits will be reached that will rival any other part of the Pacific slope. The Colorado river is bordered by lands just as capable of cultivation as the Salt and Gila rivers. A small attempt ha een made to utilize its waters fur irrigation, and with unbounded success. With the crowing demand for farming land, and the supply becomes yearly more restricted, there will beyond doubt come a time when capital will turn the life-giving stream of the Colorado upon the soil along its banks, and much of the famedand much-dreaded Colorado desert will lose its old time character forever. When it is borne in mind that fruits and all kinds of vegetables grow to such perfection in Arizona, and at a much earlier period than in California, the advantages here offered to the farmer are obvious and places this country in the van of all agricultural regions. : A IXSSON IN ADVERTISING. The following lesson in advertising from the Wyandotte Gazette so appropriately applies to a class of advertising sharks that periodically visit Tucson, that for the benefit of those who "catch on,' we reproduce it entire. "Every section of the country is subject to a periodical raid by the slick gentle man with the advertising chart in which he will sell the advertiser a choice space at from $2 to $10, according to the credu lity of the patron and the estimated size of his pocket book. Of these charts, all the way from twenty-five to fifty, or cc oasionally one hundred may be scattered about. Sometimes they are not even scattered about, but are printed and dis posed of in bulk, where they will never do any one harm or good. A caso has recently come to our attention of one of these chart gentlemen who had an edition of two hundred of these cash absorbers printed, and whose solici tude for the gentlemen who had patronized him was so slight that he did not even "lift" the edition from the office in which it was printed. The oily gentle man who manipulated the chart scheme left a copy with each manufacturer or firm represented thereon, got his money and skipped from town between two days. It was afterward learned that he hau promised to issue 500 copies and distribute them all over the state. Some firms paid as high us ten dollars for a small space. He claimed to have netted $220 in six days. Most of his victims, without doubt, were the manufacturers who did not "believe in newspaper advertising." Ue did not catch a single retail dealer who was posted as to advertising and the mediums through which it pays to operate. The advertising chart deal is only one of almost numberless devices resorted to by plausible but indolent fellows, who find it easier to skip about the country working up schemes of this kind than to settle down to any legitimate line of work. The merchant or manufacturer who puts his monev into an advertising chart could usually save valuable time and secure the same results by thrusting the same amount of hard cash into his office stove. The result would be precisely the same his money would be gone withou. any compensating return." "WHY DID HE GOT A It. Lioais Merchant' Trip to the Poat-offlce, and tbe Keault.

I never had but one attack of cramps in swimming, and that was in a match. I was three-quarters of a mile ahead of my antagonist when I felt a cramp in my leg. It caused a swelling in the calf as big as a baseball. With my other leg I tried to do the tread water act, and raising my right leg up I bent over and began to rub with all my might and main. Well, I sank five feet while I was rubbing, but I soon got rid of the cramp. If a pain should come in the stomach there is only one remedy, and that is to get out of the water as soon as possible, take a little brandy or whisky and be rubbed all over the body. As to the use of whisky as a stimulant while in the water I most decidedly advise against it. In my great swimming matches I have tried the effect of whisky as a stimulant. One good drink braced me up, so to speak, fox seven or ten minutes, and after that period I felt decidedly worse. Use no stimulant except after coming from the water, and solely for the purpose of creating a reaction. Qua Sundstrom in Hew York Mail and Express. Take In Reefs Before Tou Sail. And now a few words of caution, and you need not be ashamed to heed them, for old yachtsmen do just what I am about to advise you to do. It is only the foolhardy greenhorn sailor who "takes chances" with a yacht. In 6qually weather never fasten the sheet; always reef before you start, and if the wind is very strong take two reefs. It is easy to "shake them out," but hard to put them in; so reef before you cast off. Never take ladies and children with you in bad weather, and generally, if you are taking out a party of that kind, keep your boat Tinder reefed canvas. Then if emergency arises your sacred trust is safe; for remember that a capsize with ladies and children means ahno&t certain death to some, perhaps to all. It is wise also to have a small rowboat in tow on such occasions, for it is worth more than a hundred life preservers. F. W. Pang- born in St. Nicholas. ' E as Security. The Fifth National hank of Provi dence, R. L, lent $5,000 to a produce dealer named Alseraon, taking as security 832 cases of eggs stored with a warehouse company. Alserson used the eggs from time to time, but replaced those taken by other eggs, so that there were always 832 cases in the warehouse, r inally he failed, paying six cents on the dollar, and the bank looked for its security, the eggs. When the bank finally sent for the eggs they were worthless, and the board of health ordered them buried, which was done. Now the bank sues the warehouse company in the supreme court for $5,000, claiming that they agreed to keep the eggs safe, and the company claims that it kept the eggs safe, not a shell being broken, but that it could not prevent them from spoiling.

Stockton, Cal., July 31. Charles C. Green, an inmate of the state insane asylum, aged 20 years, was strangled to death last night by his crazy cell mate, a Portuguese named Frank Case. When the cell was opened this morning Green was found dead in his bed, but it was supposed that his death was due to nat ural causes and the body was removed to the morgna, where physicians alter-wards found marks of lingers cn his throat, and foam on his lips.

The electrical machine used for counting the census returns ;s not giving as satisfactory results as expected. It works rapidly and wonderfully, and ia a great labor saver for the 1,700 clerks of the census bureau. But it is a curious matter of experiment that the same machine will never count the same pile of returns twice with lhe same result. To-day under a challenge from an official in the bureau, thirteen tests were made, and the only result that seemed at all accurate was a single footing in one district. That was the same as that reached by counting in the oid way by the clerks. The 1700 census cleiks might have to work harder and longer if they ehould themselves count the returns, but tho final result would be more accurate.'

Lawrence, Aug. 1. Judging by the different tlegrees of ruin, Springfield street suffered the worst destruction. On this street yesterday were rows of i comfortable cottages wherein dwelt well-to do mill hands, mechanics and clerks, with their families. To-night the street i is suffocated by heaps of crushed cot tages and overturned buildings. On this street, too, occurred tbe most heartrending scenes incident to the city's overpowering disaster. To-night, under a lowering sky and amid indiscriminate piles of broken roofs, furniture, bedding, crockery, plaster and the like are gathered groups of weeping women and sorrowful men mournfully relating to each other their experiences during the blight of wind and rain. Perhaps the saddest case among all the unfortunates is that of James O'Con-nell, who lived with his family at No. 27. His wife and fourteen-year-old daughter were killed outright by the falling timbers of their own house. All day long and far into the night he has paced backward and forward in front of where his home was, the tears streaming down his cheeks and his voice crying to heaven to take him alter his dead. A touching sight met the World reporter's eye some hours after the visita tion ol the cloud burst. Perched upon a table which stood upon a pile of broken furniture and masonry was a little maid of perhaps four years. She stood looking in every direction at the wreck. Then as the reporter and others ap proached she said: I want mamma!" The crushed buildings apparently had no effect upon her then. The memory of them may later, for her mother s body was a few minutes later taken from the rins. o one there knew the name of the woman and the little girl was lost among the host of other homeless ones that are being cared for. Such scenes are common. San.

In one cell, two and a half yards square, the correspondent discovered nearly a score of wretches panting for air and starving for food. They have in the way of the latter nothing but bread and water. The greater number were 6tark, naked and chained by their ankles and wrists as if the jailers were unable to in ict tortures enough upon their victims in the dens already provided. The correspondent found a series of underground cells said to be reserved for the worst prisoners, which were in total darkness, whom Turkish tyranny had singled out for special barbarity, in order to force confessions, where confessions would have proved useful to those in power, the aid of ants is called in. These ants are kept in 6mall boxes for the purpose, and hf ty of them are placed at one time on the naked body of the prisoner whom it is desired to torture.

The transition from long lingering and painful sickness to robust health marks an epoch in the life of the ; individual. Such a remarkable event is treasured in tbe memory and the agency whereby the good health has been attained is gratefully bleesed. Hence it is that so much is heard in praise of Electric Bitters. So many feel they owe their restoration to health to the use of the Great Alterative and Tonic. If you are troubled with any disease of Kidneys, Ltiver or Stomach, of long or short standing you will surely find relief by use of Electric Bitters. Sold at 30c ta. and $1 per bottle at Dr. Martin's Drug Store. Something: Hew and Good Col. Durr has again made a step forward as a public benefactor. It had come to his ears recently, that some of the ladies of Tucson were complaining about the beer sold in this city being hitter. Being on confidential terms with his grandmother, a famous old lady who has spent her iifei n studying the lilies and dislikes of her sex, he wrote her, explaining what was the matter with the ladies of Tucson. The grandmother knew at once the remedy, and straightway sent t car-load of the celebrated Extra Pale Erlanger Standard Beer. This beer arrived yesterday, and has been sampled by the beet judges in this city, and pronounced the best family beer in the West. It is just the thing for the ladies, and no bitter taste is carried with it. The Colonel asks that every family try a few bottles of this beer, and feels confident that they will have no other afterwards. The grandmother has never made a mistake about the wants and needs of Tucson, and will answer for the satisfaction given by this new beer with her reputation, which is good. The Colonel has been instrueted to sell this beer at 812 per bbL and 12.20 per doz so that all may share in the luxury nd benefits afforded by its use. Peace on Earth Awaits that countless army of martyrs, whose ranks are constantly recruited from the victims of nervousness and nervous diseases. The price of the boom is a systematic course of Hoe-tetter's Stomach Bitters, the finest and most genial of tonic nervines, pursued with reasonable persistence. Easier, pleasanter and safer this to wash the victualling department with pseudo-tonics, alcoholic or the reverse, beef extracts, nerve food, narcotics, sedatives and poisons in disguise. "Tired Nature's swet restorer, balmy sleep," is the providential recuperant of weak nerves, and this glorious franchise being usually the consequences of sound digestion and increased vigor, the great stomachic which insures both is productive also of repose at the required time. Not unrefreshed awakens the individual who uses it, but vigorous, clear headed and tranquil. Use the Bitters also in fever and ague, rheumatism, kidney troubles, constipation and biliousness. S.
